KFTTiV,; liKADY FOK Khi )\ KFT. The Fact that there is a Law Against ' (Gambling Not Bothering Promoters. News and Courier. Active preliminary preparations at Palmetto Park, the continued arrival of race track devotees, the already large strings of race horses now in Quarters at the track, and the exp- ct ed arrivals of mors horses in the next few days, the buzz of ante-season gossip, all indicate that unless something unforeseen happens, the second annual race meet of the Charlston Fair and Racing Association will open on January 25, as announced by the placards posted in various parts of the city, and in the show windows of va-? rious business houses. Keenest expectancy is evidenced on every hand by the followers of the turf, R who are already here, and the possibinH ty that the meet may not be held r seems not to be given serious consideration. Whether there is any real hope on the part of the promoters that the legislature may take such favorable action as would allow them to go ahead with the meet under the law is not known; nor is there anything more definite than the gossip of the streets to suggest the methods of procedure which will be followed in the event the legislature does nothing. The ^ racing people, the owners of horses and others, have been told positively that there will be racing; as to the conditions under which it will be held there is only speculation. whii.o ;t ic not. known definitely, it has been stated that there are more horses here this season than last, the number now being something over six hundred. The only big stable here last year and not here this year is that Jfr. - cf R. F. Carmen, while there are several big owners here this year who * ^ did not come in 1912. As to the race followers, the indications are that there will be more of them than last year. Every train brings in new arrivals, and the opinion is prevalent that the crowd will far exceed that of last year.

Improvements and remodelling, it is stated, have been going on and continue at Palmetto Park. Trvouts with the horses that are here go on every day under direction of the trainer and jockeys that have taken up quarters at the park. tha Confederate Ironclad. Lieutenant Yancey's southern sweetheart, Rose, is jealous of Elinor, a northern girl, who is visiting her aunt, Mary de Lane. This jealousy is excited by an invitation from Mary * to call and meet her neice. Yancey visits the de Lane home and while walking along the river with Elinor, he shows her where the Confederate Ironclad is being constructed. Elinor, having strong Union sympathies, reveals the location of the Ironclad to +v,~ "ftmmander of the Federal gun boats. [__ An attack is made on the Ironclad and Yancey rides to give warning. The Confederates are temporarily helpless i as their powder is exhausted. Yancey, knowing that a supply of ammunition is loaded on a train in another location, prepares to bring the needed powder to his compatriots. As the train is about to leave, a Federal scouting party rides up and opens fire. Rose and Yancey jump on the engine and make a wild dash to 7 tescape with the powder. Elinor, from a distance, sees the fight and sets fire to the bridge over which the train must pass. While riding over the bridge the last car catches fire. Yancey, -who has been wounded, is left in the engine cab k while Rose crawls over the loaded train and succeds in cutting off the - end car just in time to escape the explosion. The powder is delivered to the Iron' clad in the nick of time and a fierce battle wages between the Confederate vessel and the Union gunboats. <s f I Th above will De snuwn x ut?uaj ?,?, the Theato.?Old court house.

' vS> "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine," It is to be inferred that the majority j of Newberry book-readers followed the ; wanderings and lov-e story of the prim1 T ? * ? T ^ TT*/\ V ltive mountain gin, .nine, in .juuji ru.\, Jr.'s delightful story, "The Trail of i I the Lonesome Pine," which will be j seen at the opera house next Monday j night. Few stories, even though they be I part fiction and part truth, have been ; written with the compelling heart-interest that the author of this thrilling story of the Virginia hills, has- sustained in every page of his narrative. Therefore, it was with some trepidation that Eugene Walter, brilliant dramatist though he is, approached the task set for him. to bring out of the book a stage June, that would appeal as strongly to theatre-goers' as the book June appealed to readers. That Mr. Walter has accomplished his task is evidenced already by the i approbation of the producers of the play, as well as the public and authi or. Mr. Walter has taken a rough, uneducated, enormously superstitious J and imaginative mountain girl, and I 3^ V o /IrJi crhffnl PTPatlir*?. He j IIItAUC lit-1 a. has brought out all the possibilities of the June of the book, catching the significance of Mr. Fox's cleancut characterization and the exquisite poetry and drama of his dominating love theme. The play contains no problem, no *; ? cav ^nminanfP hilt is' ab ; qutrsuun VI otA solute in the purituy of its s-entiment, the uplift of its moral, the poetry of its romance. A genuine man takes an interest in a simple girl. He anticiI pates her wish to be sent into the j world to be educated and in his great | goodness arouses in the heart of the girl something greater than mere affecjtion; an over-mastering love. In fact, I June expects all along that Hale will j niarry her, and when she expresses the I great love she bears him, and he tells ; her he can not think of marriage, poor little June- imagines she isn't good enough for him, and pitifully disillusioned, she sends' for her father to n I XOTICE OF FLVAL SETTLEMENT.
